Description
The British Council delivers high quality English language services to its customers, with face-to-face, online and remote learning options. In addition to its established network of Centres, Branches and Off-site locations, the British Council plans to expand it footprint via a more agile, flexible and efficient use of digital channels, with an easy in and easy out approach, following customer catchment areas, and thereby catering for our customer´s increasing need for convenience.
In order to take advantage of both new and existing business opportunities, the British Council needs to ensure it has a modern learning management system (LMS), that can be fully integrated into a unified eco-system. The LMS must be able to support and deliver on-line learning content and greater access to managing learning, all of which will help the organisation achieve its aspiration of placing the customer at the heart of everything we do.
The British Council is publishing an NDA at this time, with the intention that we will publish the tender pack in the new year. Please note that British Council staff are mostly away from the office for the upcoming Christmas period, and so queries will be picked up w/c 4 January. In the meantime please complete and return the NDA, we will then be able to share the tender pack as soon as it is available.
